I am only on Reserve right now so obviously I am not completely in the know, but I can totally see credit of 95-100+ each month, but how on earth can you average 90-95 block without getting a free vacation for an entire month at the end of a rolling year since you’ve timed out?
Obviously there will be some months that you fly 95 hours, but to average that every month?

Cash it out? (wait until you upgrade if not a CA)
Donate it?
Take time off ?(haha)
It's worth 25 hours of credit on your paycheck.

I flew 99 block 10 months straight and then timed out for two months my first year as a captain at SkyWest. After that just bid reserve for the remaining two months, they called me for 8 hrs of RDY a few times just because some of their contracts with mainline required they had a ready reserve at the airport at certain times, but it was nice to be able to go and not have to bring a bag knowing that I wasn't legal to fly.

Got it, the "take time off" (hahaha) was what was confusing me. I thought that was what it's for but that doesn't seem feasible. How would one go about attempting to use it for that purpose? How would one cash it out?

Call payroll and have them put 6 blocks of 4.2 user time on your days off. Or do 3 blocks of 8.0 or whatever works. Put it on your schedule before you quit so you accrue more before you quit.
